This is the heartwarming moment a polar bear took a dip in a freezing pool at a Scottish wildlife park.

Arktos, the 10-year-old polar bear, braved the cold water for a festive dip, while his furry friend Walker stayed on dry land.

Nine-year-old Walked looked like he was thinking about joining in but didn't take the plunge.

The playful pair, the only polar bears in Scotland, were enjoying Christmas Day at their home in the RZSS Highland Wildlife Park in Kingussie, Speyside.
